Do you have the double Lp or the 4 single side Lps of Alexander Gibson?
Hi,
the one in the Picture is the latest from CR, Gibson in 45 Clarity Vinyl.
I have the first 180gr Reissue in 33rpm, the 45 set in 180gr, the 200gr pressing I avoid whenever I can, and that one is their latest.
It is - in my opinion - worse than the ones above.
Ticks and Pops are in the grooves, even with my RCM I can minimize it, but some are still there. But it is more silent than than the latest before.
I think, the Vinyl they use is good, but the cooling process.... is not made from someone who takes care or knows how to do it really right.
From the Sound, well, when you don't know the others, it is good. But I am not really moved. You hear the limitations in the High Frequencies, it is not from the Mastering, I think, it is the old tape (or a played to death copy from it. How long does CR offer this record now? 14 years?)
